Battlefield 6 Campaign Spoilers Allegedly Out in the Wild, and the Game Hasn’t Even Been Announced Yet

The info comes from a datamine of the latest game client for Battlefield Labs, which means it's unofficial, so treat the leaked information with a grain of salt for now.


The leaked info comes from the BF1 Telegram group, who has listed info about the campaign. There's nothing too specific, but it's still details about something that hasn't even been officially revealed yet.

  • Pax Armata forces have invaded Gibraltar. Your objective: take back the Rock from enemy forces attempting to seize this strategic location.
  • Artillery has weakened Pax's defensive systems.
  • Your team, Dagger 1-3, is deployed to support NATO and British forces, including a British unit named Lancer.
  • You land alongside Bravo Element to establish a beachhead.
  • Destroy floating mines to ensure all allied AAVs can safely reach the Gibraltar shoreline.
  • Advance by accessing Gibraltar's historic Great Siege Tunnels through a path beneath street level.
  • Neutralize anti-air (AA) batteries by disabling their datalinks, allowing NATO air support to proceed.
The Gibraltar connection was confirmed as part of the official concept art for the new Battlefield game, revealed by EA.

I'm sure it will be yet another throwaway campaign in a series that built its reputation and fanbase entirely on its unique multiplayer offerings. Enlightened decision-making by EA as usual.
 
They're just training modes for the multiplayer component of the game.

Maybe they think they have to wrap it up in a 'campaign' as a competitive value proposition to COD.
 
"Spoilers"
US good, Russians bad - the game. All military fps campaign are the fucking same lol

These SP campaigns are such a waste of money in a game like battlefield. It costs a ton of money to make and just taking away resources from the multiplayer... You finish it in 4 hours and move on to play hundreds of hours of multiplayer
 
At first I wondered why they're even making a campaign for this game, but then I remembered they're probably going to slap an $80 price tag on this thing so the inclusion of a singleplayer campaign would probably make the price sting a little less for some people
 
I could be wrong but do people care about story for these games?
Personally speaking I don't particularly care about a story, but I do care about a campaign.
Like, I really enjoy some immersive military missions that give you some curated military larping that multiplayer can't provide.
Like let's say Medal of Honor 2010 for example, I know that game was mid for most people but I really like the campaign, the mission where you get ambushed in the middle of the mountains then have to fight through them until you reach a point where you have to defend a little hut until you basically run out of ammo was wild to experience.
If you want older examples I'd say something like Operation Flashpoint or Delta Force.
I'd like kind of the same here, no overarching villain you have to get or anything like that. Make the army you're fighting and geopolitics the villain, build the story around that and then just give me role-playing scenarios where we can larp as a grunt or tank crew or fighter pilot.

In this case it seems to be NATO with the most focus being on the British, that could be cool imo. We've had tons of games focusing on the SAS and the likes but when was the last time we had a game focus on modern, conventional British Armed forces?

And how much money does it take to make mp arenas? How much can money really improve a few maps and some guns. I don't understand how these fps games without single player take so much to make.
It's just modeling a few small levels (compared to an engaging linear single player shooter or open world game), and some guns. A few enemy types and some stickers for the people that care about that.

Single player if done right is great. Battlefield has only done it 2x where it was any good. I loved Single player in Bad Company 1 and 2. Also in Cod 1, 2, 4 , waw, mw2, (aw and ww2 were ok) . mainline battlefield story mode is redundant sure, but there is a lack of compelling single player story mode fps.

If they made a Bad Company 3 with the original characters and a more tight multiplayer like bad company 2, I'd be all over it. They won't though so I'd settle for a remaster. Won't happen though they delisted those games, you have to have the disk.

Will this campaign help to improve my daughter's self-esteem. She loves katanas and has a prosthetic arm. If she's not represented, then we have to go back to watching the last jedi.

They better! And I'll be super disappointed if they don't make my daughter, who sports a wheelchair and loves to no-scope headshot people with unicorn rainbow powers, feel included in this military shooter. 😤

My wife, Karen, is writing a stern post as we speak. She's going to @ the devs, EA, Kotaku, PCGamer and Eurogamer. Be the change you want to see. 🦾🦿🦄
 
Love to see it happen to EA, they deserve it, but the truth is, releasing a campaign for BF is like releasing a campaign for CS when CS2 came out. Who gives a shit? People in charge are so f'ing dumb. Instead of creating a campaign, sell your game for $40-50 without a campaign, and literally 100% of the BF community would be happy. Nobody plays BF for it's campaign, and these suits think that after the failure that was BF2042, every game must include one. Stupid.
 
Y'all are crazy, BF3 has some of the most iconic missions on par with Cod's best. I am all in for a weekend playthrough if they can hit only a fraction of this kino:



 
WOW I can easily see BF6 getting 200 million players with such a great story.
 
That big expose on this game a week or so ago seemed to indicate that this campaign was supposed to be big and elaborate but the original studio shit the bed. This will likely be a throwaway campaign as usual then.
